Moon Dust

Sometimes to save something, one must lose it, to fix it, one must break it. Susan Connors has faced an unpleasant fact. For her own health, she must end her marriage and free herself. Her demand for a divorce blindsides Dane who, as an inner city high school principal, has become the target of increasingly dangerous attacks because of his stance as high principal. As she builds a new life, Susan feels freed except she still loves her husband. She searches for why their marriage fell apart and learns the answer lies in a secret which Dane is keeping to himself. As bad as this has all seemed, it's about to get worse. Susan not only has to fight for her husband's emotional health and trust but for his very life. Much more than a "romance". This is a story of love, reconciliation, the adult ramifications of childhood abuse, of groups determined to assert control, of education in the United States, and most importantly of the cost of standing up for what is right with the view that we can change lives. Adult romantic suspense set in Portland, Oregon. 'Second Chance' is set 8 years later and follows two of the characters from Moon Dust into a new romance set in the work of wildlife rehab.
